Democrazia Cristiana

Democrazia Cristiana (Christian Democracy) was a prominent political party in Italy, active from the post-World War II era until the early 1990s. It was rooted in Catholic social teachings, advocating for social justice, family values, and a balanced economy. The party aimed to unite various political and social groups under a moderate, pro-European, and center-right platform. Democrazia Cristiana played a key role in Italy’s post-war recovery, shaping government policies and maintaining stability for decades. Its influence declined amid political scandals and reforms, leading to its dissolution and the emergence of new parties.
